there's no doubting Parra will be a tougher test than Penrith were, hopefully our improvement continues and we can come out on top

Worst conditions that I have ever seen at a footy game.....rain,wind,it was cyclonic.

That was the first game I ever took my girlfriend to. Standing at the foot of the hill, with the water flowing over our feet. Early try to the eels and I was wondering if I was mad bringing her. But the feeling when we got on top (the team that is...) was so good that she was asking to go back the following week. No wonder I married her...

I've been a member since 2012. We last played finals football in 2011. Just saying...

I think you'll find that whenever we play at Leichhardt our team is blessed with a magical power that makes them immune from defeat. Unless of course someone is injured or we play a team that is better than us.

Yeah it was dismal. Didn't someone get hypothermia on the bench? I remember I had the heater on for about 10 minutes before I could move my hands enough to drive... Just bucketed down all game. Only worse weather I can remember is a Manly game during the 80s when it hailed and they actually thought of calling off the game. Lost on a dud refereeing decision - some things don't change...

I was at both games.....it did hail at the Manly game but the sun was out...the all bolted off and nearly didnt come back out.But the Parra game was ridiculous...players had there hands in hot buckets so they could feel their fingers,and there were trainers everywhere washing mud out of their eyes.From memory Senter actually had frosbite/hypothermia or something of the like.

this is very strange, I remember the rain but don't recall it being particularly unpleasant
